IITians are selfish, have no genuine love for India, says Markandey Katju

New Delhi: Known for speaking his mind, former Supreme Court judgeMarkandey Katju now seemingly has a take on the mind-set of students of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT).

While addressing students of Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Katju on Friday said that they do not have genuine love for country and they are utterly selfish with no patriotism or idealism left among them.

Katju visited the elite engineering institution and the comment was unexpected as he was invited as a guest speaker there to speak on various issue.

After visiting IIT Bombay Justice Katju on Saturday posted on Twitter where he said, “Most of you IIT students have no genuine love for the country. You are utterly selfish, with no patriotism or idealism”.

He further criticised the students saying that, after the IITians settle down in America, they become NRIs, who know everything and do not understand about what is good for the people of country and what is not.

Not only that, he even went on to the tax sector where he said, "Your education in IIT is largely subsidized by the Indian taxpayer. But after we Indians pay for your education, you are taken away by America who benefit form your knowledge, which was imparted by us. He lashed at IITians and further mentioned, "And after settling down in America, you will become NRIs -- supercilious know-alls, who will give lectures to Indians about what is good for them and what is not."

IIT's are run by Indian taxpayers money.They get the world class education and that too dirt cheap and then they abandon their fatherland for Amreeka. They send money back home and that amount is huge but we would do much better with their brains.
But honestly if I was an IITian I would abandon my fatherland too.Why??Because I don't want to waste my talent.
Research facility is BullSh8t in India,quota system even in higher education,very less paid jobs,Babuism,politics involved. Everything is Bullsh8t in India and I would not like to waste my talent.
I remember an IITian who is selling drones to US Army.He is not in India.He has to move to singapore because he couldn't open his firm because of Red Tape and babuism and even if he was able to then also Indian army wouldn't buy sh8t without the under table money.

may I pitch in
I may work for india and absorb the salary difference too. Not a problem but:
a) I can't send my kids to a school where they can get exclusive Hindu education.
b) I have to pay bribes for getting work done.
c) Even in pvt sector I need contacts.
d) Can not get fresh air and read everyday with "India not industrialized"
And these are just the problems ine faces everyday . Add to that bad infra, corruption and Judges like Katju , politicians like Rahul baba and Nitish Kumar. Yuck!
In foreign land my only duty = Pay taxes !!!

Not to mention what passes for Hindu education is just melech pratilom activism as seen on this forum.

Katju is known for some controversial statements but this point is riveting.
Despite all charges of corruption and red tape can the tax-payer-money-brought-up IITians defend their decision to ignore India and go to another land for a living.
When we say Government it is actually the state Governments who are the real rootcause why India isn't competing in education and talent worldwide. State Government are highly incompetent concentrating only on populism and propaganda against other states to retain vote banks. What do you say guys ?

I know a guy who came back from US because of his love for India.He curse the day he decided to move back
He is planning to move back to US

Take 2 cases Ashok khemka (IAS) and Amitabh Thakur (IPS),both IITan decided to serve their country and people and look what happened with him,they could've moved to the west and earn $$,screw Caucasian girls and finally settle it someplace cool in west,instead of bearing abuse of 3rd class illiterate politicians and life threats.

Yes.Don't come back.You won't like the work ethics and politics involved at work place.
Although I don't know the details what this friend of mine faces in office but all I know is that he has changed his job 7 times in last 5 years and now giving his last shot by moving to bangalore.
After that he is outta here

I thinks Katju will be happy by listening this.ISIS: Police suspect three Mumbai youths could have joined ISIS.

Yup Some IITians are selfish and no genuine love for India like some Indians, at-least they are not doing any terrorism/Mafia in other countries.They are investing their hard/soft work for HIGHER REWARDS(Dollars&Dinars > Rupees).In another 10-20 yrs India started to grow then the same guys will return.

How dare you suggest low iq muslim converts with even lower iq from inbreeding engage in terrorism.

Meanwhile you seem to imply that unlike the low caste converts, the high iq upper caste infidels, sorry HINDUS immigrate and do good things.
